I'm half tempted that if by next Thursday if I don't hear anything about my Gigantic I'm just gonna order one from Ebay.

How fast is shipping typically from Hobby Link? They do ship to the US correct?

I've ordered from HLJ before. They ship directly to US. Usually 5-6 days

Due to the size hobby link will only ship shin via FedEx it appears. With shipping my total was 947 USD. It was 5 day shipping.

I contacted them again! If I don't hear something by Thursday night then I'll just have to get one from somewhere else. This shit is getting ridiculous!

Shin arrived. I was not prepared for the mass of this thing. Or the quality. Oh god.

Nahh, it was a custom model by someone for an exhibition. Seemed heavily inspired by some figures from X-Plus, though.

Oh. I got excited thinking that if x plus put one out maybe a shma wasn't far behind.

How much would shipping be from them? I may have to order from them. Screw Monsters in Motion.

Via FedEx was roughly 320 more. It’s so huge. I undervalued the pre release stuff and reviews. It’s obscenely large.

Hmm I can probably manage that. I'm paying almost $850 as is.

Yeah. My whole order was 967 dollars. It’s close to being not worth it, admittedly, but it is. 1000 bucks and it’s worth it.

Their website is retarding out because it won't provide me with a shipping quote. I've never had to pay more than $100 for shipping before, even for large figures like Legion and Gigantic G'62, so is $300+ really the cheapest option they offer?

As far as I am aware it is. At least for Hobby Link. Rich Erso has the option to have his box cut down and so that reduced his to around 200. But for the full intact box, a little over 300 is the cheapest I believe.

Fuck Monsters in Motion. I just found a Gigantic Shin on Ebay for slightly cheaper than my preorder and couldn't help but jump on it. They already charged my card so hopefully it'll ship soon. Should be here by Christmas at the latest. I'm gonna go ahead and cancel my preorder Monday. Hell the only reason I did preorder because I thought it would be nearly impossible to get after release. Of course that turned out not to be the case.

Added in 2 minutes 42 seconds:
Man I can't believe how cheap you can still get the Xplus Kaiser Ghidorah. I've seen several of them still well under 300 bucks.
